Joseph Armeli Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Harder Funeral Home - Brookfield on Jan. 31, 2026.
Our hearts are heavy as we announce the passing of Joseph Anthony Armeli, beloved partner, father, son, brother, nephew, cousin and friend to many. He was born to eternal life on January 28, 2026. He was 52 years old.

Joe is survived by his loving partner of many years, Kristina; his adored children, Joey and Suzanna; his cherished father, Joe; and his dear brothers, Tony (Audra) and Michael. He is further survived by his nephews, niece, aunts, uncles, cousins and a wide circle of much loved friends. He was preceded in death by his mother, Marie Armeli; grandparents, Joe and Angela Armeli; uncle, Charles Armeli; and aunt, Anna Tagliavia.

Joe will be deeply missed for his big smile, his huge heart, and his larger than life personality. He worked hard, he played hard, and he loved hard.

Joe and Kristina had 18 wonderful years together, filled with love, laughter, and family. His greatest achievement was his children, and he was so very proud of the people they grew up to be. He was deeply grateful for and fiercely loyal to his family and anyone he called his friend.

Celebration of Joe's Life will take place on Monday, February 9 at St. Charles Catholic Church, 313 Circle Drive, Hartland from 10:30 AM until the time of Mass at 12:00 PM.

Joe's death has left a hole in our hearts that can never be filled, but we will hold our love and our memories close until we meet again.

Joey was such a big part of so many of my memories growing up whether at SJV or MUHS. His big heart and laugh were second only to his character. My heart is heavy and my prayers go out to the entire Armeli family. Joey, you were a great friend and teammate. RIP!
